It might be a better solution that tying health insurance with a job. Doing so seems to make it harder (more expensive) for people without jobs to get health insurance. But otherwise, what they're doing seems interesting.

FYI, I had to vouch for your comment. Looking at your comment history to see why, maybe try staying away from one or two word replies.

Edit: I see HN as a place for people to improve. If it seems like someone has the ability to make HN a better place with just a minor adjustment, it seems like the best course of action for everyone would be to make that person aware of the issue and giving them the opportunity to change it, rather than hiding it and basically ignoring the person.
